Really fun game! My favourite part was the 2v2s. I gotta come back and play this with a friend for sure!
The Boss fights were very fun and the final one was challenging. Survived with 1 heart left! The art work was cute and the dodge animation was super cute and very satisfying
Everything leading up to the boss fight was a bit too similar, would have liked to see the levels get more difficult in its entirety. I also think the harpoon felt a bit stronger than any of the later weapons.
Overall, great job! I had a fun time in the arena!
thank you. beating the final boss with one heart left is the best way to win it, and glad you had fun in the arena too
Pretty impressive that you managed to incorporate different boss fights (even if they were functionally the same). Unfortunately I got softlocked on day 5 after opening the chest in the center, I wasn't allowed to progress back down to the main path so I wasn't able to finish the game
Neat game!
My nitpicks are that I would have liked to see a bit more clearly how far my weapon reaches when attacking, and I sometimes took damage from crabs while changing screens, which feels a bit unfair.
Other than that, though, it was fun playing through the different days and fighting the bosses :)
Good game! I had a good thing going with my +8 Gaff, but I died on the fifth island boss.
This is so good! I do think the stun is a little too long because you can stun lock the bosses pretty easily. Those crab guys are pretty tricky actually haha.
Great work! Swapping the color palette was a cool way to add some variety without adding a ton of new assets. The boss fights are fun. All in all, a great effort!
The boss fight mechanic was really fun! I'm not the best at these types of games, but it was still fun to attempt a few times lol. Loved the music, art and the color choices. Very good job :3
that fog of war reminded me of steategy games like age of empires. and boss fight mechanics very cool!!
Really fun to play! I liked the color switching mechanic, and especially the variety of bosses and weapons.
I like the graphics, nailed the gameboy feel. Great job!
Great graphics and itchio site! Good luck
thank you, glad the page and the graphics landed. good luck to you too
I actually hat a lot of fun with your game. I really enjoyed the boss battle with the drowned king, and then I saw the final time, and immediately played it again to speedrun. My time was 3:15 :)
thank you, and 3:15 is quick. hearing the timer sent you straight back in for another run is the best bit of this
Really advanced game for a game jam, nicely done!
thank you, thats kind of you to say. really appreciate you taking the time to play it

thank you, really glad the co-op held up for you. good to hear it actually works for someone else
